Filmore made his national television debut on NBC’s Today Show this morning (5/15) and performed his hit single “Slower.” Co-written by Filmore, Justin Ebach, and Steven Dale Jones, “Slower” has garnered nearly 30 million streams and is currently climbing up the country charts.

When asked about the debut single he said, "I wrote it about back home in Missouri where I grew up. A lot of experiences, when you write songs, I've been here for six years in Nashville writing songs for a living, I really found out who I was as an artist, I found the songs that I love, and I kind of put those together. And this one really tells a story of my life and how I always try to slow things down and live in the moment; 'Slower' has always been that for me. I knew from the moment I wrote it that it was one hundred percent me, very exciting, and I was hoping that people would love it. They started responding in live crowds, and as that progressed, it just became something that's one hundred percent a part of me. I'm just beyond excited to move to the next level with this, and be here performing it, and now be at Country Radio. I'm taking a chance on the song that definitely made me who I am."

The anything but typical Missouri-native, who now calls Nashville home, has received early accolades for his live show and has built an impressive fan base prior to signing with Curb Records. He continues to sell out shows nationwide and will be making his Opry debut on June 14. He tells us, "I'll be touring just as much as I have the past two years, if not more. Things are escalating, so I get to play for some bigger crowds. I'm really excited about that."
